# FAQ
## Configure AWS [CLI](/notes/cli) to use Wasabi on [macOS](/notes/macos)
1. Install [AWS](/notes/aws) [CLI](/notes/cli) and the endpoint plugin:
	```shell
	# Install AWS CLI
	brew install awscli

	# Install the endpoint plugin (allows to configure endpoints in profiles)
	/opt/homebrew/bin/pip3 install --user --break-system-packages awscli-plugin-endpoint

	# Create directory for configuration files
	mkdir -p ~/.aws

	# Set permissions on the directory
	chmod 700 ~/.aws
	```
2. Configure the plugin by modifying `~/.aws/config` - adjusting the `cli_legacy_plugin_path` as needed:
	```text filename=~/.aws/config
	[plugins]
	endpoint = awscli_plugin_endpoint
	cli_legacy_plugin_path = /Users/claus/Library/Python/3.13/lib/python/site-packages
	
	[profile wasabi]
	region = eu-central-1
	iam =
	    endpoint_url = https://iam.eu-central-1.wasabisys.com
	s3 =
	    endpoint_url = https://s3.eu-central-1.wasabisys.com
	s3api =
	    endpoint_url = https://s3.eu-central-1.wasabisys.com
	```
3. Configure access key and secret key:
	```shell
	aws configure --profile wasabi
	```
4. The profile can now be used - as an example, list buckets in Wasabi:
	```shell
	aws s3 ls --profile wasabi
	```
